Hello all!! I hope your Easter was fantastic! We had a very enjoyable Easter:)
Transfer #3 in Paradise 2nd ward with Sister Laws, week 2! (I've been here for about 14 weeks now! crazyy! )
Another great week, Sister Laws and I were busyy! we were able to make a lot of contact with members, LA's and have some really good lessons!! Lots of miracles happened! AND....we had TWO BAPTISMS!!! that's right two!! We were very blessed this week! some pictures will be below:)
Monday, we had a great P-day and got to rest from our labors of doing missionary work and it was a good break! After 6pm, we were able to have dinner then plan for the next day.
Tuesday, we did alot of street contacting and also had a lesson with one our investigators,Julie, we read the Book of Mormon and it was such a great read.
After that we went to visit one of the LA's we work with, Brother Hamner and were able to read a few verses with him and then go visit a few members and other investigators. Quite a busy day! Lots of people were seen. We also were able to set up alot of times for the next week to meet! We were also able to meet Levi, a new investigator- he agreed to meet with us to learn more about the church! It was perfect timing!
Wednesday, we had a District meeting ....which was so good! then did some visiting more members, teaching and saying hello to everyone! It was fun! then for dinner, it was at a LA's house- French's and it was a very good meal and great discussion on church and how they love coming to church! and going to class to learn more about the gospel. We also were able to use the Ipad, to share the "Because of him" video" ,then have a short lesson on the Atonement, and they agreed to meet with us next week! How lucky are we to have such wonderful tools to help those "Come unto Christ" and be given that chance to be made complete! The rest of the night was great! worked with members with Facebook, how to share videos, and taught them a little bit of the "small and simple things" they can do to be missionaries- it was was really cool!
Thursday, We had a great lesson with Dottie,and Sister Ahrens was there too- she taught most of the lesson and was ready to help! It was such an incredible lesson and the spirit was so strong there! She is getting close to making that commitment, I can feel it. We also were able to visit those who needed to see us too! We also had a good lesson with Emily and Kylie too, they are were ready to be baptized!
Friday and Saturday, we did weekly planning and made the last minute phone calls to those who were apart of the program, and everything was able to work out well. The baptism went well!! Emily and Kylie were able to be baptized, her family was there and it was such a great evening. The family was so happy! Also on Saturday- we were able to be apart of Mormon helping hands too! It was a blast!!
Sunday, the confirmation, was so great! The spirit was so strong at church! we had a lot of people there to support them- their parents weren't there, but her grandparents were and we were able to take some photos's too! you'll see them:)
Our week was pretty good, I hope you all were able to have a great week as well and everything is going okay! Remember to read and pray, and miracles will come your way! Promise!!
Love you all, and will talk to you next week :) Peace outtt :D
Until next time,
Sister Nicole Matchett
